 My vehicle locked after shutting the back passenger door. i just placed my son in the car seat and buckled him. i shut the door and walk completely around the car to open front driver's door. before i could open door, the vehicle locked itself with my son, keys, and phone inside. it was 94 degrees outside and humid. we called for help and tried to slide antenna in to unlock. after contacting the dealership, garrett said that this is an ongoing problem and the new parts may not fix the problem. *nm
